Robert Pattinson apparently doesn't like being photographed by paparazzi. The British heartthrob, who plays hunky vampire Edward Cullen in the blockbuster "Twilight", was a little bit camera shy while being spotted in Los Angeles on Tuesday, March 3.

The 22-year-old actor unsuccessfully tried to sneak his way past paparazzi into a hotel in Los Angeles. Robert, who was recently in Tokyo, Japan for the "Twilight" premiere, was photographed wearing a black t-shirt and black jeans.

Robert Pattinson previously said he tries to avoid places where he will get photographed. "I don't really cope with it. I mean, I guess I've stopped, I just try to avoid places where I get photographed," the actor told Teen Mix. "I don't really like getting my photo taken, which is probably not a great thing if you are going to be an actor."
